Toronto Mental Health

Every year, one in five Canadians is affected or will experience a mental illness or addiction issue which results in a cost of over $50 billion to our economy. According to the Mental Health Commission of Canada, there is strong evidence that investing in mental health promotion, prevention and early intervention programs can significantly reduce this cost.

The Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) is Canada’s largest mental health and addiction teaching hospital, as well as one of the world’s leading research centres in the area of addiction and mental health. CAMH combines clinical care, research, education, policy development and health promotion to help transform the lives of people affected by mental health and addiction issues.
